The 25-year-old victim was walking on Intervale Avenue near Crombie Street on Friday night around 10:20 p.m. Investigators said two men approached the man and demanded money. The victim turned over what he had, and then one suspect shot the victim in the back, police said.

Both men are described as black men in their early 20s, police said.

One was wearing denim jeans with a distinctive, stitched zigzag pattern on the back pocket, police said.

The two men are considered armed and dangerous and possibly stopped at T. Rugg’s Tavern after the shooting, investigators said.

“It's best to keep personal safety at the forefront of your mind,” said Det. Jeff Beerworth. “Be aware of your surroundings anytime in the city. Carry a charged cellphone. Walk with others. Have people know where you're going and when to expect you there.”

Police said they are offering a substantial cash reward for any new information that may lead to an arrest.

This is the same intersection where a pizza driver was robbed last month. In that case, two men displayed a gun and demanded the man’s wallet. No word if these cases are connected.
